Your short list for The 11th Doctor

you know we have talked about Eddie Izzard before, just watching the finale (damm that show needs 1 more episode) and it occured to me, he really should have been The Other Doctor, if in fact he turns out to be a conman rather than a future Doctor.

Also his companion should be Di Di, I mean she is HOT, just my type, of course the type of girl I should avoid, but thats what makes her so sexy, something to allow me to dream of a life away from my buffer life.

Come to think of it can she just be a companion any companion?
 
James Nesbitt is the choice I'm liking.

Graham Norton would be my second choice.

And my never going to happen choice; Daniel Craig for the Christmas Special.
 
I think Eddie Izzard would be a pretty good choice if he was allowed to, y'know, act, and not just play up his reputation. When he really gets his teeth into a role, he's a very good actor (not only in The Riches, but especially in the film The Cat's Meow, in which he's fantastic as Charlie Chaplin).

James Nesbit would be a good choice as well, but he's said the role wouldn't interest him, more's the pity.

nice choices. Sci-Fi has a story that rumours are pointing to Paterson Joseph, if they did want to go with a black fellow I'd like to see Colin Salmon in the role.
 
Ugh, not Paterson Joseph. He was merely decent in Doctor Who and was way too bombastic in Jekyll (and the one thing I didn't like about that series).
 
I love the idea of Rickman as the Doctor. I'm not sure why people suggest women as the Doctor, I realise the BBC is pansified these days and trying to please feminists at every corner - but feminizing Doctor Who (more than has already been done) would be the death of the show.
No, I don't have a problem with women playing big roles - not at all - but I do have a problem with the political cow-towing to feminists. If they want to do a female dr. - start a new version so all generations can be female. Don't destroy a winning formulae just to please nagging supremacists who insist on pushing men out of the way at every possible angle.
Izzard would be also be a terrible choice, IMHO. Collin Baker already fulfilled the fairy version of Doctor Who :)

What colour is the sky in your world?
 
So given the immature responses to my post... I assume you think it would be good to feminize DW yet more? Awesome. I mean, they could always do what Star Trek did with Janeway - make a spinoff, why not? But to completely feminize him (more the Russel T. has already) would be just silly.

Shame to ruin a winning forumulae.

Why not make him a midget while we're at it? Why not make him a "How, me Indian" too? Or even better why not really go for the minority vote and make him regenerate into a one-legged lesbian with a liking for mullets?
